Lot-et-Garonne: the Ping Pong Club Villeneuve Sur Lot moves to Caen
Almost relegated to ProB after its defeat conceded Tuesday evening in front of Jura-Morez (1-3), the PPCV is moving to Caen tonight to honor the jersey and above all to have fun behind the table. Faced with a formation from Calvados which is playing for the title of champion of France this season and which is still the leader of the ProA despite a narrow defeat in Angers (2-3), Marc David’s men will have absolutely nothing to lose. They will have to prove to observers that with a little more regularity in their performance and success too, they will be able to maintain themselves in the highest spheres of French table tennis. Last Tuesday, against the Jurassians, this team lacked a little something to reverse the trend and upset the hierarchy. Perhaps a little more character and aggressiveness on the important points in the famous “money time”. And character, energy but also madness, it will be necessary this evening among the Caennais who dream of the supreme title at the end of the exercise. The objective of the Villeneuvois will be to make them slip a few banana peels under the baskets and spoil the party for them. But for that, they will have to take on the skin of 2 former residents of the PPCV Stéphane Ouaiche and Antoine Hachard. The first is also having a very good season with interesting statistics and many victories to his credit. It also remains to be seen whether the Chinese Wan Yang blocked in his country at the start of the week will be able to take part. Because without this little Asian pearl, Calvados players will be a little less armed and the debates could be more balanced. To Liventsov, Omotayo and Cavaillé to resist well in the Caen cauldron and to show the full extent of their talent. Without any pressure…
